| VETO MESSAGE ON ESSB 6528 |
| April 1, 2016 |
| To the Honorable President and Members, |
| The Senate of the State of Washington |
| Ladies and Gentlemen: |
| I am returning herewith, without my approval as to Section 1, Engrossed Substitute Senate Bill No. 6528 entitled: |
"AN ACT Relating to promoting economic development through protection of information technology resources." |
| Section 1 is an intent section that is not necessary for the policy implementation of the bill. It does, however, contain language that may create unintended liability for the state. |
| For these reasons I have vetoed Section 1 of Engrossed Substitute Senate Bill No. 6528. |
| With the exception of Section 1, Engrossed Substitute Senate Bill No. 6528 is approved. |
| Respectfully submitted, |
| Jay Inslee |
| Governor |
